> The goal is to have an option to produce JSON output of the DDL commands that
> is easily machine parseable.
> For example, "desc my_table" currently gives
> {noformat}
> id bigint
> user string
> {noformat}
> and we want to allow a json output:
> {noformat}
> {
> "columns": [
> {"name": "id", "type": "bigint"},
> {"name": "user", "type": "string"}
> ]
> }
> {noformat}
